Now Boarding Flight 856 to Kona...part 1

We are home! We arrived home safely yesterday after spending 15 days in Hawaii. My brother married the love of his life and we all got to witness and participate in the festivities. We had a blast being tourists, thou it's been said we weren't "total tourists" since we have so much family on the island to show us the insiders scoop.
We have a TON of pictures, so I'll split this up into a couple blog postings.
Everyone's first question is "How did the kids do on the plane?" The boys did amazing, they were great. Alanah was okay, not great but not horrible. Kaianah, well lets just say I thought to myself many times during the flight, WHAT WERE WE THINKING??? The boys sat in front of us, taking up the three seats. (and sharing a DVD player) Then Dusty, Alanah, and I were directly behind them with Kaianah in my lap the entire time! phew, that was a rough time.

Dusty rigged up a way to keep the head set on Alanah's head. That's a hair tie and pipe cleaner! :)

The boys all wore matching orange shirts and the girls wore orange paisley shirts so we could spot them easily.

When we boarded the plane, single file down the aisle in our orange shirts, we had another passenger ask us if we had ever heard of Jon/Kate Plus 8 and everyone laughed.

Awww, she FINALLY sleeps. Now I just need to hold this position for another 4 hours. ha,ha
